Popis: A robust contactless vital signs monitoring system using circularly polarized ultra-wideband (UWB) radar is presented. The design of the proposed UWB radar system is based on a time-expanded correlation architecture. The circularly polarized antenna array of the radar has an axial ratio bandwidth from 3 to 10 GHz. Use of circular polarization has demonstrated improved accuracy for vital signs monitoring.
